Live Pilot Training Host: Frici Csatlos

Good day pilot friends, 
In this episode we cover Emergencies, and a few tips.  When faced with an emergency remember: Aviation, Navigate, Communicate. FLY THE AIRPLANE. 
Please review your airplane's POH for emergency procedures; each aircraft has its own unique emergency procedures. 
Happy Holiday, 
Frici

Good day fellow pilot friends. 
Two topics I covered in this episode; flying to Oshkosh Airventure including alternative airports if you don't feel comfortable flying in to the 'World Busiest Airport'.

The 2nd topic I covered is what's in my flight bag. 
Fly safe and train often!
Your host, 
Frici

Good day fellow pilot friends, 
In this episode we discuss aircraft performance, and how wind, runway surface, and density altitude impacts your aircraft performance. Also touch on CG and how forward vs. aft CG impacts your performance and manuverability.
